How much enjoyment you got out of watching “Hostiles and Calamities,” this week’s episode of The Walking Dead almost certainly coincides with how much you care about Negan, Dwight, and Eugene. Personally, I’m not super invested in any of the three characters, so as an overall episode, this one didn’t do that much for me. […]
This week’s episode of Arrow was one that wasn’t quite sure it knew what it wanted to be. “The Sin-Eater” had good character moments and interesting plot beats that were scattered about, but it felt like too much was crammed into a single episode to make for a cohesive story. It’s true, we did get […]
Well, that was quite the episode. After slowing things down a bit with the exposition-laden “Chapter Two,” Legion jumped right back on the high speed train to strange with “Chapter Three.” I was a bit worried last week that the series wouldn’t be able to consistently sustain the strong visual style of the Noah Hawley’s […]
Regular readers of my Flash reviews know that I’ve been less than enthused by the villains appearing on the show this season. Whether they’re based on classic Flash foils like Savitar—or decidedly less classic ones like Girder—the villains appearing lately on The Flash have been so cookie cutter that they should have come with baking […]
This week’s Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. was packed so full of action that it’s hard to know where to start. After a few lackluster episodes, this one really packed a punch. This episode had no “Self Control” and things went buckwild. Let’s dive in. The episode opened where we left off last week. Fitz and […]
Love is in the air (in more ways than one) in this week’s episode of Supergirl. But like many of the themes and plotlines from this season, the execution leaves something to be desired. I could start by mentioning the poor timing of scheduling a Valentine’s Day themed episode a week after the rest of […]
“New Best Friends” is the perfect example of the best and the worst tendencies of The Walking Dead. When the show is at its absolutely best (here, in the scenes between Daryl and Carol), it’s capable of creating heart-stopping tension with only the spectacular abilities of its cast and a few lines of dialogue. At […]
It’s amazing the difference a director can make in the world of television. While “Chapter Two” certainly wasn’t a poorly directed episode (on the contrary, Michael Uppendahl did a great job with the story he had), it lacked the spark that Noah Hawley (who also wrote “Chapter Two”) brought to “Chapter One” of Legion. Muddying the […]
This week Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. delivered another twist, maybe the most impressive one yet this season. The episode started as a rescue mission, but ended in a trap. Let’s dive in and see what went down on this week’s episode, “The Man Behind the Shield.” This episode was woven together using the present mission […]
It isn’t easy being Lena Luthor. Your parents are cold, stern and businesslike, while your brother is only the most notorious mad scientist on Earth. Throughout this sophomore season of Supergirl, the showrunners have teased viewers who wonder if Lena is destined to follow the family tradition or wants to join the side of the […]
